Dear friends and colleagues

While many of you are enjoying WPC2016 in Beijing, successfully organized by the Chinese Branch of WPSA, the French branch is preparing to welcome you all in Paris for WPC2020.

We invite the participants of WPC2016 to visit our booth in the China Convention Center, where members of the French branch will be happy to discuss with you and listen to your expectations for WPC2020, while tasting French specialties (cookies, chocolates…). Necklaces with the WPC2020 logo will be offered, as well as postcards to send your greetings to colleagues from WPC2016 on a WPC2020 card! Visitors will be invited to drop their professional card in a box in order to participate in a raffle with several prices from a free inscription to WPC2020 to a glittering Eiffel tower.

For those who do not have the chance to attend WPC2016, don’t worry, you will find updated information about WPC2020 on this web site. Our ambition for WPC2020 is described below and we will start working with you in the coming year in order to make it happen and meet your expectations for 2020.

  • AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SPONSORS AND PARTNERS OF THE POULTRY INDUSTRY

The Congress Centre will host a large exhibition area allowing poultry industry to demonstrate its expertise and potential.
